STATE COLLEGE — The 3rd Annual South Hills School Culinary Week Food Festival will be held on Thursday, June 16, from Noon–6:00PM on the North Lawn of the South Hills main campus at 480 Waupelani Drive in State College.
This joint production with the Central PA Convention and Visitors Bureau was such a hit last year that we have an even bigger festival planned for this year!
Live chef demonstrations, a farmers’ market featuring only local foods, live music, workshops, and school tours will provide an afternoon of learning, fun, and fabulous food for the entire family.
